Best Red Mulled Wine
Red mulled wine is one of the favorite hot drinks during Advent. Find out how to make the perfect mulled wine at home!
Ingredients
- 1 l red wine
- 250 ml water
- 50 ml orange juice (freshly squeezed)
- 50-100 g sugar
- 3-4 cardamom pods
- 4-5 cloves
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 star anise
- 1 tbsp rum (or brandy or whiskey)
- ½ orange (organic, cut into slices)
Instructions
- Add the wine, orange juice, rum, and water to the cooking pot. Add sugar, but don't add it all at once if you are not sure that you will need the entire amount.
- Take a piece of double cheesecloth or muslin fabric, put all the spices inside and tie them in a small sachet with kitchen twine. This step will make it easier to remove the spices before serving. Add spices to the saucepan together with a few orange slices.
- Cook on very low heat, uncovered, for about 20 minutes. Don't let it boil, it should just reach a simmering point. When it is cooked, remove the spices and serve immediately.
